It's My Party

Katie contacted us with a request for a special birthday outfit for little R.  She is turning one and everything she owns is ladybug. After discussing options we decided to stick with the color scheme but not the actual bug. 

We used the reversible tunic due to its wearibility and versatility.  Just imagine it with a pair of leggings and a turtleneck during the winter.  Or by itself for spring and summer!

Happy Birthday R!!

All Bagged Up

 

Jerri contacted me about making a garment bag for her little sister to haul to shows with her.  We then became a bit sidetracked by the polka dot and tractors dress but we eventually knocked it out.  It couldn't be cuter! 

She wanted a brown polka dot with an aqua swirl pig and I must say she has GREAT taste!

It's All In the Name

We were recently contacted with a request for something "Very special" for 3 month old twins.  Perhaps something to do with their names (David and Sophia), definitely something blue and something pink, something...unique.   Immediately our minds began racing and after searching to no avail we decided to design our own fabric.

David's was a mixture of blues with a touch of brown. 

 Classic little boy.

Sophia's was filled with pink.  The essence of little girl.

And although we adored the way they turned out we thought that they needed a little something more. 

Personalized teddy bears were in store!

Sophia's name is spelled out on her teddy's feet!

And David's is looking mighty studly in his bow tie!

ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS!

ROCKSTAR

I know that this has nothing to do with show animals but we tried out a new technique and LOVE that way it turned out! I teach kindergarten at the academy my older daughter attends and one thing that I adore is how much she and her classmates actually care for each other so when S's birthday rolled around I wanted to make sure we made her something she would be excited about. Well when you ask a five year old what they want you never know what answer you are going to get and she informed me that she wanted to me a ROCKSTAR. HA HA if you knew her you would laugh too! This is she ended up with and when she opened she said "It's what I've always wanted!" Good times I tell you, good times!

Polka Dots and...Tractors?

Jerri contacted me about making something for a brand new baby girl that had everything.  She told me that the little girl's mother had been showered with so many gifts that she wouldn't have to wear the same outfit twice for the first 6 months of her life. 

So obviously she wanted something that would stick out from the rest and after much discussion we decided on a reversible dress that once she grows will still work as a tunic.

Pigs On a Blanket

After seeing the steer fabric Christa, from RHD, contacted me about pig fabric.  Of course we were thrilled to try. 

Check out how cute it is!

I wanted you to be able to see how LARGE these blankets are.  That is my five year old holding it up and no she isn't tiny either.  The blanket is just BIG!

Lollipop Lollipop!

My oldest daughter turned five this month and we celebrated with a Sweet Shoppe.  I knew I wanted her to have something special that would work for not only the party but also family pictures.

This is what we came up with and I could not be happier! 

They photographed beautifully! 

This makes me laugh EVERY time I see it!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET M!
